After hearing this, the servant had no choice but to go and ask first.
Here, Sun Yannan asked the kitchen staff to bring up the snacks she made first. Everyone had almost finished eating by now. Several young masters were so full that they could not stand up, which made Madam Shi laugh.
The snowflake pastry, thousand-thread cakes, rose candy, and fried glutinous rice balls made by Sun Yannan were served on the table first. In addition, the square cakes that were prepared all year round in the main kitchen at the young master's order because Rong Li loved to eat them were combined into a plate with the diamond-shaped ice skin cake made by Sun Yannan, plus a meat floss pancake, a total of six plates of snacks were served.
He called out to the people who were already full, such as the young master of the Yan family, and said with a smile: "Such a beautiful snack, I have to eat some more even if I have to risk my life."
The maids had already served Biluochun to go with these dim sum. Sun Yannan's master only taught her red dim sum, and these white dim sum were from a female chef hired outside when her mother asked her to learn one or two dim sum dishes. But because of Sun Yannan's innovation, these dim sum were different from what she usually ate.
After eating, the young master of the Wu family said, "The quality of these dim sum is amazing. If I had to find fault, it would be this cake. It really doesn't look like it was made by one person."
Sun Yannan said, "This cake is my husband's favorite. He said it was an unforgettable food from his childhood. It's always available in the big kitchen, and it's really not made by one person."
The Young Master of the Yan Family took a bite of a piece, then put it on his plate and stopped eating. He said, "Even though this is food that brings back fond memories from my youth, it really doesn't taste good. Brother, after all, is just nostalgic."
Rong Li looked a little embarrassed. Sun Yanan didn't say that these were her favorite foods prepared for her. He only mentioned that they were her husband's favorites. But in fact, the meatballs, mushrooms, and bamboo shoots that she had praised during her last visit were also available this time.
She also liked the fried magnolia slices, but she was almost the only one who picked up her chopsticks among all the dishes on the table. Others only tasted a little and then left.
Even the siblings Shi Yue and Shi Wei didn't realize that these were the three dishes they usually praised.
She finished all the other dishes, and the second chef prepared her favorite dishes. The taste was the same as usual, but there was a lot left over.
It's all because Sun Yannan deliberately made the other dishes look so delicious. How insidious and narrow-minded.
No one took a second bite of her favorite dim sum. Rong Li suddenly realized that Sun Yannan was returning the favor to her last time when no one touched the extra food she'd prepared. Humph, how petty!
Shi Yue originally saw that his wife had no idea how to prepare all the delicious dishes and snacks without a chef. He was both impressed and felt sorry for her hard work. During the meal, his eyes often followed Sun Yannan's figure unconsciously.
But now, seeing that she let Rong Li lower his head calmly, he felt a little resentful that she was not giving way to others. After all, Rong Li was a guest, and his health was not good.
After hearing the servant say his wife didn't want the dishes served, he had originally planned not to serve them, but now, for some unknown reason, he said to the servant, "Go ask Miss Rong if she's finished eating. If she wants to eat more, bring the dishes up."
Rong Li had asked her maid to come back and report to her a long time ago. Now, seeing that Sun Yanan had a great time at the meal and everyone was satisfied with the food, she was very unhappy.
Shi Yuelai asked if she wanted to serve the dishes. Knowing what she knew, she immediately said, "I do want to try some more. The main reason is that the chef's cooking skills are so good."
Since she said so, Shi Yue had no choice but to serve the food.
Sun Yannan felt a chill in her heart after hearing the servant's reply. She had been counting the time today, calculating the time for each dish to be out of the pot and the time it took to make each dim sum, interspersed with stir-frying and Xiaoye's cold dish steaming.
He kept running back and forth between the big kitchen and the peony garden, arranging the work of the workers meticulously every time, and finally ensuring that the meal was completed without any mistakes.
But now, my husband only has Rong Li in his eyes. Maybe he heard others say that the cake was not delicious and felt that this also hurt Rong Li?
Should I use myself as a raft, harboring other people's unhappiness, and not care if it sinks? No matter how hard I try to do well, it will be as futile as the last time I kindly asked for extra food.
It turned out that when she told Shi Yue that there was something wrong with the dish, he didn't take it seriously at all.
Since that was the case, she decided to go all out. She asked the kitchen to bring out a set of clay plates, a simple set originally used for barbecue.
It is completely different from the jade-green and white jade-colored porcelain plates used for the entire meal today.
Re-plate those dishes and set them aside.
Sun Yannan stood by the table and said with a smile, "I also want to thank Miss Rong. Knowing that my head chef was away on leave for the past two days, she was worried that I wouldn't be able to prepare a decent family dinner. She asked her maid to choose a good restaurant where they usually eat, and ordered a lot of dishes for my husband's servant to buy.
Since Miss Rong usually eats well, I think the taste is also very good. I have asked someone to plate it and it will be here soon."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other with strange expressions. Old Madam Rong then said, "Why? I wanted to come over to see my old sister. Didn't you younger generations give her a heads-up in advance?"
Rong Li hurriedly said, "Of course not. Shi Wei knows about this."
Shi Wei's face flushed crimson upon seeing the truth revealed, and everyone else was at a loss for words. Could it be that the sister-in-law had something against her and wanted to embarrass her? Was she embarrassed?
Seeing Rong Li had so easily brushed her off, Sun Yannan wasn't about to let her go, so she said with a smile, "Although my sister-in-law forgot to tell me, I think Miss Rong is well aware of it. Otherwise, why would she have asked the maid to guide our servant to buy some food and bring it back today?"
